4) The registrant's other certifying officers and I are responsible for
establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as

us by others within those entities, particularly during the period in
which this quarterly report is being prepared;

procedures and presented in this report our conclusions about the

control over financial reporting that occurred during the registrant's

reasonably likely to materially affect the registrant's internal
control over financial reporting; and
5) The registrant's other certifying officers and I have disclosed, based
on our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial
reporting, to the registrant's auditors and the audit committee of

operation of internal controls over financial reporting which are
reasonably likely to adversely affect the registrant's ability to
